snow on the plow
cornfields are windblown
winter's coming now.

Ice crystals are dancing
sun's behind the moon
scarecrow is working
winter's coming soon.

Leaves are red and gold
grass has turned to brown
mountain's velvet is missing
winter shows it's frown.

Pinecones burst and fall
hear the crunch on the ground
cold rush is coming forth
winter's come to town.

The wind is picking up
the shore loses its' sea
summer days are lost forever
winter does not flee.

The ache sets in 'bout September
you can feel the darkness creep
watch the moon come out early
in with winter it seeps.

Harvest sphere so bright in the sky
the taste of fall's crisp air
witches, goons and goblins
winter screams without a care.

Thankful holiday rushes
commercial's quest of greed
what was sowed in springtime
winter reaps it's seed.

Waiting for the coming year
some rest at end of Marchs' stay
flowers' bloom not far from then
as winter goes away.

So until then I'll curse and cry
for what early darkness brings to me
loss and pain and crushing memories
as winter comes to be. [comments] => 3 [counter] => 155 [topic] => 48 [informant] => jaeann [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 4 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

Winter.... tis a puzzling topic, I should think...... It's usually percieved in a negative light. Atleast what I've seen. Well, except that Robert Frost one, "Stopping by A Lake on A Cold Winter's Night" I think it's called. Probably got the name wrong, but hey, who cares. Point is, winter is a fascinating subject, am I right? Very mysterious......
Kudos on the write, it was lovely.

Love Joy and Peace,
Jelly

An underlying message of pain ... and get your drift here ... I feel so badly for you as I know what pain you will be feeling this next month (and forever) ... but a beautifully written poem about winter and its effect ... Jan

Jaymee you wrote about nature, and it was splendid indeed!
I hear your aching heart, and I know it's in need.
I lost my Bob in March, just before Spring,
It matters not the season, rain, snow, hail or sleet!
Whenever a season will change, I remember the defeat!
I understand your pain....and wish I could be near for a great hug....won't take away your hurt, but may help you with the tug!
Love you,
ConSue
